This news came in today's Times of India:
Chennai: A young software engineer working with Tata Consultancy services was killed in a suspected computer blast at his home in Velachery, late on Friday. The incident took place when Vijayakumar (28) hailing from Madurai, was working on the computer.His room mate had gone to the bathroom for a bath. He heard a loud noise, came out and saw his friend's charred body and fainted.
The police said, 'It sounds quite unbelievable. We have not heard of such a case before. But the scene of the accident seems to suggest that the youth was killed in an accident, as his body was in the sitting position in front of the burnt computer'.
***
This is the first time I am hearing this type of news about a burning computer. Everything else in the room seems to be intact. Does this suggest something wrong with the computer or power lines? Don't know. I feel bad for his parents.
